Exciting new start for Derrick

Derrick very quietly went into work early Wednesday morning and told his manager that he was quitting.  He didn't want to sell anything before his end date that he wouldn't get paid for so Monday he called in, Tuesday his boss called and told him he could have the day off and the rest of the week was a huge jumble of nerves and little sleep.  You see Derrick is a worrier and even though we have thoroughly thought this job switch thing over and talked numerous times about it he just can't relax until he is in the mix selling and making money.  His nervous energy let to dishes that were done, a house that was vacuumed and dinner in the oven or in the crockpot every night!  He is leaving CRI in Lino Lakes after nearly 5 years with the company.  He is moving over to MEI in Osseo.  MEI offers great prospects for D and I can't wait to see where this leads him.  He is going to have to work pretty hard for the first few months to establish himself but the benefits include an office (with a desk : ), company cell phone and eventually benefits, weekly base pay and car allowance!  He will be making his own schedule and no longer have to go to the office in the a.m.'s for meetings.  MEI has a showroom so he will for the first time in 5 years be able to tell his customers to come into the showroom to see the products up close and life size instead of the little demo pieces of shingles, siding and gutters he usually stores in his car that have drove me nutso for a long time.  His fresh new start is official on Monday and I am hoping Sunday is his last night of restless sleep!  Goodbye CRI, Hello MEI!
